So, what's the benefit to running tights vs. pants? Obviously, I know they're tight, but I'm just confused on pant types and the pros/cons to them. :)

I've found that most of my pants (except for 1 pair) fall down after I run in them for a while, even if they fit me when I wear them otherwise. So I like my tights better - they keep me warmer and they stay in place. I think it's more of a preference thing. For me I want something that's light (in weight, but not warmth), stays where I want them to stay, and is a wicking material.

Are you shopping for a new pair?

I'm not sure. I have three pairs of awesome Lucy pants, but they're not running-specific, a pair of Adidas running pants that aren't tights, and another pair of random exercise pants from Target. I have $50 in birthday money to spend, so if tights are the thing to have, I might get some. :)
